State-of-the-Art, Comfortable Dentistry

Dr. Van Huffel provides many options to help distract and entertain you while you wait for your appointment and during your procedure. We have current magazines for you to browse and a very cool 8’x8’ chalkboard that kids and adults alike absolutely love. Play tic-tac-toe or release your inner artist, there’s plenty of room for creativity! In addition, for your comfort we provide:

Juice and Coffee Bar with Bottled Water

Cable Television

Wi-Fi Internet

Headphones

You’ll have your choice of cable channels and music during your procedure as well. You’re also welcome to bring your own headphones and music if you prefer.

Advanced Dental Technology

We pride ourselves on having a modern practice. From the atmosphere, to the office systems, and beyond, we offer state-of-the-art dentistry in every way.

Intraoral Cameras

The dentist or hygienist inserts a pen-sized, camera-tipped wand into your mouth. The computing unit enlarges the full-color images and sends them to a TV screen comfortably viewed from the dental chair.

CEREC Same-Day Crowns

Our CEREC technology allows us to custom-make our patients' crowns over the course of a single visit to our office. Instead of requiring two or three appointments, our patients leave on the same day with custom-made crowns and brighter smiles.

Digital X-Rays

A tiny sensor is placed in your mouth to emit a small amount of radiation – up to 90-percent less than traditional X-rays require. This creates a detailed image of your oral structures that is immediately viewable on a chairside monitor.

DIAGNOdent Laser-Assisted Cavity Detection

Cavity detection has gone hi-tech with DIAGNOdent. Using laser technology, we are able to detect the smallest areas of decay, and treat the cavity with a minimal amount of tooth reduction taking conservative dentistry to a whole new level.

Mercury-Free and Metal-Free Office

Though the ADA has stated that the mercury level in amalgam fillings is safe, we take no chances with your health. We are a mercury-free, metal-free dental practice offering all-porcelain restorations and composite fillings.

We’re Paperless

From online registration, to digital X-rays, we’ve created a paperless office. Not only does this provide patients convenience (no more hand-carrying film X-rays to referrals), but it’s also better for our planet.

Sedation Dentistry

We understand that some of our patients are apprehensive about seeing a dentist. Whether a recent experience or a lifelong worry has made you fearful, don’t let anxiety keep you from seeking the dental care you need and the oral health you deserve. Learn More About Sedation Dentistry.
